Transport Facilities

Travel decisions are both physically and socially constructed. The development of transport facilities requires a holistic and systemic approach to create an environment that both enables and motivates less car-dependent lifestyles and facilitates further community-built and natural environmental benefits.

With a focus on positive user experiences and operator outcomes, GHD understands the importance that transportation facilities play in the environmental context.

Our approach recognises that transportation facilities are markers, catalysts and character-defining elements within existing and new communities that, upon completion and operation, initiate a behaviour change within the immediate and broader communities.

We are able to access our connected global network of transportation professionals to influence, facilitate and implement a holistic and systemic approach for each transportation facility we design. Our team works beyond our immediate building engineering teams to extend into our sustainability, social planning, evaluation, economics and transport planning teams to deliver projects of all type and scale to achieve the best outcomes for our clients.

Below are projects for Transport Facilities

Airport terminals are among the most significant public architecture commissions of the 21st century.

GHDWoodhead approached the design of the Adelaide Airport Plaza as the individual human experience of people in transition, with an exploration of opportunities that arise between departure and arrival.

The Perth City Link Busport project was the second and final stage of the $249 million Public Transport Authority (PTA)'s infrastructure project to construct a state-of-the-art underground busport, replacing the 40 year-old Wellington Street Bus Station.

The Adelaide Central Bus Station operates seven days a week for buses servicing regional areas and interstate destinations. Located in the heart of the city, approximately 300,000 people per year pass through the terminal on both interstate and intrastate travel.

The Leichhardt Bus Depot was operating at capacity, with 98 buses and workshop activities carried out in the heritage tram shed. Growth in commuter demand required expansion of the depot to accommodate a minimum of 200 buses.
